I’ve included this as Castleton 2b [NS88NE 53] meantime.

It doesn’t exactly match the description in Canmore (“two large disc cups, roughly pecked”) but it is in the right general location and I couldn’t see anything better matching the description.

Number 2. NS88NE 9. Described as “a ring of peck marks [15 cm] and a natural basin [18 cm]“.

Castleton 2

There are two sites here
- NS88NE 9 which has a lightly-pecked (possibly partly finished) cup and one ring and
- NS88NE 53 (known as Castleton 2b) which has cup marks only.

They lie almost adjacent to each other at NS 85818 88303 on the far end of the first rocky ridge N of the farm. Under the telegraph wires. 2b is the easier to spot.
